Forgive me but I'm ranting a little. Our third renter is 4 days late in paying his rent.
Why can't we find anyone who's worth a poop to rent our house?
Comeon, we live RIGHT next door, so he knows when we are home and when we aren't so paying shouldn't be a problem right? He also knows our cell and home numbers so calling us shouldn't be a problem either. But he's done niehter but leave us with a note stating that he's going to his parents and will be back the next day ( DH saw him the 1st) so when asked if he has the rent he proceeded to tell DH that his brother went to jail and he had to give him his rent money to bail him out???? What's that about? SO he said he'd have the money by 3 oclock Sat. So we were both off at 3 and went over there numerous times through out the night (his cell is conviently not taking calls) and he hasn't been there yet. Now it's 9:30 Sunday night and I want my money. I am very angry and want to know why we can't find anyone to rent our house that will pay the rent when it's due? We fronted this guy the security deposit AND two months rent to fix up the place but he's not even finished the place like we agreed.
I really want to change the locks but he's DH's friend and so DH is being a jerk and letting this guy walk all over him (just like the last two did, they were his friends too, seeing a pattern yet??) and won't let me do that, so here I sit, stewing and being mad at him because he's being a jerk and being mad at the renter for taking me for $700 in rent and $300 in lights. pretty crappy IMO. Sorry I just needed to rant.
